From April 16 to 19, 2026, Casablanca (Kingdom of Morocco) hosted Africa’s largest international education exhibition — “Forum International de l'Étudiant Casablanca – 2026.” The organization RACUS GROUP traditionally took part in this significant annual event, as it has done since 1996, presenting a wide range of opportunities for Moroccan youth to pursue higher education at Russian public universities.
The Foire Internationale exhibition complex brought together representatives of higher education institutions from more than twenty countries. The RACUS GROUP delegation stood out: across two modern stands with a total area of 40 square meters, the organization’s staff provided consultations to prospective students and their parents, offering detailed information about the advantages of studying in Russia, the universities within the RACUS group, and career prospects for applicants.
Visitors to the exhibition received information about more than 1,200 study programs in fields that are in demand on the Moroccan labor market, including medicine, engineering, economics, and others. The opportunity to study in Russian, French, and English attracted particular interest.
At the invitation of the Director General of the RACUS GROUP, A. Nutsalov, the Consul General of Russia in Casablanca, D. Mezhaourov, visited the exhibition. He also visited the RACUS GROUP stand and took part in the official opening ceremony.
Despite an overall decrease in the number of visitors compared to previous years, the “Forum International de l'Étudiant” remains an important platform for Moroccan youth and their parents to obtain information about studying at national and international higher educational institutions. RACUS GROUP traditionally places special emphasis on participating in this major event in the Kingdom.
Over four days, the two “Study in Russia – 2026” stands were visited by more than 10,000 people. Participation in the Casablanca exhibition became a highlight of the large-scale exhibition tour conducted by the RACUS GROUP across Morocco in 2026, covering a total of 22 cities throughout the Kingdom.
